A different New York comes alive at night than the daytime city, one with its own magic and enchantment.
Whoever wrote the caption on the back of this 1940s postcard understood this well.
“Spectacular sight as this is typical of all New York which is truly a fairyland when night begins to descend,” the caption reads.
“The Empire State Building, guardian of the skyscrapers, keeps faithful watch over her charges throughout the night.”
